Bessy breaks collarbone

French rider Frédéric Bessy broke his collarbone during Cofidis' training camp in Montpellier. According to team manager Eric Boyer, the 33-year-old is making a swift recovery and "will be in a position to participate in our next training, from January 9-19, in Saint-Aygulf." Boyer insisted that Bessy take his time before resuming riding on a home trainer as he can be "enthusiastic like a junior."
